This project combines an artistic research on challenges and possibilities of VR-Audio in combination with VR-technology with the idea of a game for ear training.

Our goal is to create a Beta-Version of a game for VR-technology. The structure is based on a escape game: The player is set within a 360° video scene. When turning the head, the audio changes, ranging from modified acoustics to the real audio recording. The player has to listen carefully and find the right listening angle in order to finish the level.

For the different levels, we record with a 360° camera and a 360° microphone.

In total, there will be recordings of 10 locations, 4-6 of them will end up in the first outline of the game.

This is a non-profit research project, which will be released on creative commons in a VR game store. The project is part of the VR-Audio Berlin research network.

Unfortunately, we are not able to pay fees, but as we are a research project, you can get the recordings/audio we made of and with you. In return, we would like to use the video and audio material for our game. We guarantee that we will give credits to all our protagonists, musicians and composers, as well as to our hosting locations and sponsors.
